What: Bigert & Bergström's The Broken Greenhouse

Bigert & Bergström

Skellefteå Art Gallery presents the Broken Greenhouse by the Swedish art duo Bigert & Bergström, whose new exhibition, The Broken Greenhouse, focuses on the destructive human impulse to control and tame nature by creating space for cultivation and cities. For this exhibition, the artists are showing new and older works that in different ways allude to the idea that nature created for humanity a perfect climate that is now broken. For almost thirty years, Mats Bigert and Lars Bergström's work has been driven by scientific and historical theories, often with clear reference to issues concerning the current climate crisis. @Time: 10:00-18:00, weekends, 10:00-20:00, weekdays. @Where: Sara kulturhus @Suitable for : The whole family ┣@Cost: Free

Kjells Bänk

1-2-3-4! Kjells Bänk may look as though they've only just started high school but this spiky, tuneful foursome bring to mind prime 1977 punksters Stiff Little Fingers and The Ruts. Maybe their grandparents used to be punks? Support from the Ramones-y N:A Hospitalet and Sekunderna, who have a touch of the Buzzcocks about them. It's still the late 1970s at Mullberget on Friday night and that's no bad thing.
